Some new programming projects.
Recently, I’ve been involved with some projects that have been put out on google code. To be more precise, there’s two of them. Since it’s on google code, everyone can check out the source code and play with it. If you want in on one of the projects, please take contact with me in some way. (Maybe by posting a comment or something).
1: Kwikktaim
Kwikktaim is not just an attempt to violate copyrights, it’s also a multiplatform media player. Unfortunately it’s based on Java Media Framework, which is outdated a long time ago. It does not have support for much formats yet (it doesn’t even play mp3s). It’s capable of playing an old video that sun has released (the trailer to the movie Dark City), and midi files. There are some cool features, like generation of key frames, and the possibility to stream things from the internet (mostly used for playing midi-files). It’s written in Java, and we plan to extend it’s functionality in the future. We have plans of changing the name to Linara or something similar in the future.

2: Sjakk
If you know norwegian, you know that this is chess, and it’s simply me and some friends attempt to make a simple (but nicely designed) chess program. We are currently implementing all the roles, and making tests for everything. Currently we have a text based interface, but it should be easy to change to a graphical interface. We also have plans to make it simple to write your own computer player (artificial intelligence!) and create some kind of compitition - write the best computer player.
